We’re very close to launching the new version of the DMPTool – May 19 for administrators and May 29 for all users! A schedule of the upcoming releases and changes to the DMPTool are available here: http://blog.dmptool.org/switch/

We’ve also created a new video to promote the DMPTool. It’s available on Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/82408192. Feel free to use and link to any of the documentation and the video as part of your local outreach.

The DMPTool continues to get a great deal of use, with April 2014 one of our biggest months to date. We had almost 400 new users in April, and there were 350 new plans created.
